Stone Honing & Sealing

Restore, Protect, and Enhance Your Natural Stone Surfaces

What Is Stone Honing?

Stone honing smooths and refines natural stone surfaces like marble, granite, and travertine. Using diamond abrasives, it removes scratches, etch marks, and imperfections to create a matte or satin finish. Honing restores the stone’s natural beauty and provides a uniform, elegant look. It can also prepare the surface for later polishing. For long-lasting protection after honing, explore our tile and grout sealing services to keep your stone surfaces sealed and protected.

How Stone Honing Works

A series of finer abrasives are applied to gradually smooth the stone. The level of honing is adjusted based on the desired finish, from soft matte to subtle sheen.
